There's the burden of proof thing (it's the affirmer, not the denier, who has to present evidence) and the null hypothesis thing (in absence of evidence, the no-effect or no-relationship hypothesis stands).
I'm not trying to prove anything. I'm asking specifically about the process people who are smarter than I use to rule a proposition out.
